In July 23rd of Chenghua, twelve-year-old Xingxian king Zhu Youzhu was formally canonized as Xingwang, and he was given the title of Weihui, Huguangan and Luzhou.
Dozens of Jinyiweiqi officials, as well as many eunuchs, followed King Xingxian and moved their families to Anlu Prefecture.
Jiajing Emperor's father Zhu Youzhan, later King Xingxian, was the second son of Ming Xianzong Zhu Jianshen, and his brother Zhu Youzhan was Emperor Xiaozong of the Ming Dynasty.
King Xingxian's mother, Shao Guifei, born in Zhejiang, was born poor and humble. Her father was a soldier in the sand. Because she was unable to raise Shao after giving birth to Shao, she sold her to the home of the eunuch in Hangzhou to work as a maid.
The guard eunuch saw that Shaw was smart and smart, so he taught her to read and read. By the time Shaw was sixteen, he was already born and settled. Happened to catch up with the emperor's choice of concubine, so the guard eunuch sent Shaw into the palace, hoping to get the emperor's favor and develop his family business.
Although Shaw was beautiful and dignified, and he was familiar with poetry and books, it was a pity that he had been in the palace for many years and never saw the emperor, let alone be favored by the emperor. As soon as the gate of the palace was deep like the sea, for a young woman, life in the harem was lonely and boring. One day, Shaw was wandering in the garden, feeling for a moment the lonely life in the palace over the past few years, and unconsciously sang a poem: “It’s raining over the jade steps, and the air is cold in autumn, the wind is shaking the golden lock, and the night is too loud. I haven’t seen the king for a few years. Noodles, how can Penglai be so close!"
At this time, Emperor Xianzong happened to pass by the garden. He was deeply moved when he heard the poem sung by Shao's lowly. He also saw Shao's charming and loving, so he left her in the inner palace.
In the twelfth year of Chenghua, Shaw’s first son, Zhu Youzhu, King Xingxian, was born. This was the second son of Xianzong, so he was very happy. Shao was named a concubine Chen because his mother was expensive. He was also named a noble concubine by Chen Fei.
As Shaw's only son, Shaw paid great attention to the education of King Xingxian Zhu Youzhu, and she devoted all her efforts to the education of King Xingxian.
Xingxian Wang Zhu Youjian started to teach him to read poetry and books from the time he was sensible. Therefore, Wang Xingxian has developed a good habit of loving reading and thinking independently since he was a child. As a result, King Xingxian also paid special attention to the education of his son, the Jiajing Emperor. Therefore, Emperor Jiajing had a virtuous name since he was a child. This also laid some foundation for his later election as a relay.
The princes of the Ming Dynasty received a lofty status and generous treatment in the fief, but their words and deeds were also strictly restricted and restricted: "Separate enfeoffments without tin soil, list princes without visiting the people, and eat money without ruling affairs."
In this kind of living environment, the king of Xingxian, Zhu Youjian, did not enjoy the pleasures of many clan aristocrats, behave in a nonchalant manner, and even carried a golden hammer in his arms to arbitrarily hammer the people to death on the street.
Relying on the status of the royal family, some vassals murdered violently, rebelliously murdered their fathers, became obscene and corrupted, and harmed the common people. Among the feudal vassal vassals in the Ming Dynasty, it is difficult to find a vassal mansion with no bad traces. Among all the vassals, there are many evildoers everywhere.
For example, Xin'an Wang Zhu Youxi has a hobby, and he likes to eat the liver and brain of living people. Often in the evening, he waited for people who passed by his door, waiting for an opportunity to lure him into the mansion to kill and eat. Therefore, there will be no more pedestrians in front of the palace gate in the afternoon.
Some princes and zongzi even murdered their fathers and their mothers, **** their concubines and court ladies, they were evil and rebellious.
For example, Zhu Jianyun, the elder of King Jing, resented his mother’s preference for his younger brother Liang Wang Zhu Jianpu, so he imprisoned his mother in a dog hole without food, and his mother was starved to death. Later, his brother Zhu Jianpu was summoned into the Houyuan and beaten to death. He also forcibly **** the concubine He. He also saw that his younger brother, the King of Duchang, Zhu Jiantan’s wife, Ma, was beautiful, and he became lustful. Because Zhu Jiantan’s mother, Ma, was under strict supervision, she became angry. She shaved and beaten her mother, Ma, until she was injured. Later, Zhu Jiantan was used by Zhu Jiantan. The bagged soil crushed it to death and tied the Maos to the palace. In addition, Zhu Jianyun also gathered villains in the market, rode across the Han River, and looted the wives and daughters of the people.
These ridiculous things about the Ming Dynasty princes are too numerous to list. Of course, there are also those who are unwilling to be indifferent, raise troops to conspire, and bring harm to the country and the people, such as Ning Wang Zhu Chenhao as a typical example.
In the five years of Zhengde, Ningxia’s Anhua King Zhu Zhixia led his troops to launch a rebellion and beheaded Liu Jin who was sent to Ningxia to search for Dali Temple Shaoqing Zhou Dong and others in the name of “clearing the farmland”. This rebellion was nothing but a failure. Nineteen days, but it inspired Zhu Chenhao, the king of Ning.
In June of the fourteenth year of Zhengde, King Zhu Chenhao of Ning raised troops in Nanchang to rebel against the court, bringing great chaos to Jiangxi.
Ning Wang Zhu Chen Hao was frivolous and imposing, but he was good at decorating himself with literary behavior; he greedily amassed money in Nanchang, and he had political ambitions. Before the rebellion, Ning Wang Zhu Chen Hao had premeditated , Successively bribed the eunuch Liu Jin, the minister Qian Ning, and the actor Zang Xian, to confuse Emperor Zhengde, restore the abolished guards of King Ning's family, and raise the dead, kill civil and military officials and innocent people in the confinement area at will, and force the officials and people’s property. Move tens of thousands, looting merchants, harboring thieves, and conspiring to raise troops. He also tried to take his son into the heir to Wuzong and obtain the throne.
The queen Shouren led the troops to quell the chaos and arrived in Nanchang in August of the fifteenth year of Zhengde, and stormed the city the next day. Two days later, Wang Shouren's department was ambushed and rushed back to rescue the Ning Wang army in Nanchang. The main force of the Ming army caught up with King Ning’s fleet on the morning of August 20th, just as King Ning came to the dynasty. Wang Shouren lit the boat and let it drift into King Ning's fleet. King Ning was forced to flee when his own ship caught fire, and was immediately captured.
In August of the fifteenth year of Zhengde, Wang Shouren took the captured Zhu Chenhao to Nanjing and dedicated it to the Emperor Wuzong of the Ming Dynasty. The rebellion of King Ning ended here.
Compared with the restless and self-defeating, even tyrannical kings of Daming, who had no public minds and did not understand public opinion, King Xingxian was "respectful and thrifty, light and profitable", and had the heart of being an excellent subject and loving the people.
According to the spies of Dongchang and Jinyiwei who specialize in monitoring the feudal lords, they reported that the clothes and underwear worn by King Xingxian were all fabrics, and the clothes were not messed up or changed. "A must-have, no animal girl music, no banquets, no livestock".
Indeed, after he arrived in the feudal kingdom, many merchants offered rare jade treasures many times, but King Xingxian refused to accept it. Do not wear silk, whether it is coat or underwear, only cloth. Don't keep singing girls and dancers in captivity, don't entertain ministers, don't eat cattle and sheep and other livestock, let alone the delicacies of mountains and seas. And often "suppress one's ambitions with playthings" to reprimand those who offer or persuade him.
The king of Xingxian Zhu Youzhu was also very appropriate in dealing with the relationship with local officials in Anlu Prefecture and the county.
According to the sealed archives of Jujinyiwei's secret newspaper, King Xingxian was very sympathetic to local officials and had a noble demeanor for the benefit of the people.
In the last years of Hongzhi, there was Anlu Zhizhou, the name direction, the word Xingyi, Tongcheng people, Hongzhi 20 years from the work to the Anlu Zhizhou. He was low-key, and when he took office in Anlu, there was only one book boy with him. During his administration of Anlu, the officials were honest and frugal, upright and clear, and he was a rare official who was quite talented and could be called a "good official".
However, at the end of three years, he should be transferred to another post, but the people are reluctant and want to stay. The king of Xingxian Zhu Youzhu stayed with the emperor of Shushu, and asked for the rank of ascendancy, which shows that the king of Xingxian Youchen loves people.
Because the emperor was worried that King Xingxian was buying local officials, he also deliberately asked the Dongchang factory to review it. In the end, he did not find that King Xingxian had selfish motives, and the good name of King Xingxian was praised by others.
